Michael Sean Patrick "Mike" O'Meara (born June 22, 1959, Glastonbury, Connecticut) is a podcast personality, the host of The Mike O'Meara Show, previously a nationally syndicated radio show which returned as a podcast. Previously he was the co-host of the nationally syndicated The Don and Mike Show. He was also the co-host of The Kirk and Mike Show weekday mornings on WVRX-FM in the Washington DC area from 2010 to 2011.
O'Meara is a graduate of American University. Before being teamed with co-host Don Geronimo, he worked as a bar and nightclub disc jockey and held many positions in radio. He was partnered with Don Geronimo for more than 20 years; first at WAVA-FM (105.1 FM) in Washington from 1985 to 1991, then at WJFK-FM from 1991 to 2008. His talk show was revived in 2009 as a free podcast as well as a weekly one-hour premium bonus show for paying subscribers.
On February 4, 2008, WJFK-FM announced that Geronimo's last day would be May 30, 2008, and that The Don and Mike Show would continue as The Mike O'Meara Show with Don and Mike Show regulars Buzz Burbank, Joe Ardinger, and Robb Spewak. The announcement brought to rest speculation about the show's future. Geronimo's retirement was moved up to April 11, 2008. The Mike O'Meara Show began on April 14, 2008 having moved the show back to the WJFK studio in Fairfax, Virginia. After one week, former Don and Mike Show producer Beth Ann McBride returned to become the producer of The Mike O'Meara Show.
On July 14, 2009, it was announced his show would no longer air on flagship WJFK Manassas-Washington DC, and his show will remain in syndication as "best-ofs" for 30 days before ending completely. The final broadcast of the Mike O'Meara Show on WJFK-FM was on Friday, July 17, 2009; the following Monday, July 20, 2009, the station started broadcasting in its new all-sports format.
